on the couch
in a week, the rusty orange couch i’ve grown accustomed to will probably be moved out. if in-a-week me were writing this, she’d be on the cold hard wood, surrounded by boxes. in a week and two days, i’ll be home. the dry warmth of my suburb of los angeles around me. the city of…

finding my nest

a letter to the snow
dear boston snow, thank you for making this california girl smile. i still don’t know how to layer for you. i can’t believe high 30’s is starting to feel warm. i wore birkenstocks in you yesterday (don’t yell at me they’re plastic and it wasn’t snowing). i used to think you were pretty, but sometimes…

my style
i know it’s been a common theme on this blog to muse about the style that i want to have and the steps i have to go through to get there, but i wanted to give an update. since the beginning of this school year, i’ve probably purchased 20-30 new pieces of clothing, which is…
